Do you get any government assistance?

[WTFisWallace?]

They will never open up registration for Coli again.

I know it isn’t commonly thought of in that way, but if my parents had to pay (beyond just taxes) for me and my all my siblings to go to school….at least 2 of us probably would’ve been SOL .



Also as a jit, my ol boy gave me the ‘I had to walk 20 miles to school and then couldn’t even go no more’ speech a few times.

The majority if not all of The Coli is or has gotten some form of government assistance at one point and time.

And you know that how?

And you know that how?

Because there are a million different forms of government assistance out there even if they don't have the connotation of food stamps, Pell Grants and insurance. It's the biggest misconception about government assistance in general.

Those stimulus checks that a lot of people got essentially were a form of government assistance. The majority if programs that people partake in or have benefitted from over the years are forms of government assistance as that’s who sponsored the program.

Nope

Food stamps/EBT should be part of reparations.. give nikkas $300 a month in stamps over the next 25 years no question ask

 

[Cereal_Bowl_Assassin]

Yeah I was on food stamps when I was down and out. Cats around my way were all high and mighty about using it but now me.....I walked into that building asking for my stamps our money goes into it anyway

[Paper Boi]

Currently - No.

When I was in college I had a bridge card for a semester or two, and I did get Federal Student Loans if that counts.

 

[Paper Boi]

i had much beyond the pell grant

california state colleges have amazing state assistance if your parents make below a certain level

 

[The Intergalactic Koala]

No shame in the game

Some government employee with the treasury i would assume.
